E4 has commissioned a new series which will see Fred Sirieix put 10 young people on a crash course into the world of high-end hotel hospitality.
In Fred's Last Resort, the First Dates maitre d' will whisk the youngsters off to a stunning resort on the French Riviera and put them through their paces in a series of challenges designed to see if they can cut it in a luxury service environment.
"The hospitality industry changed my life when I was just 20. It taught me the skills for success," said Sirieix.
"Last Resort promises to not only be a dramatic and fun filled series, but it will also give our young contestants an insight into the world of high-end hotel management whilst developing valuable and transferrable skills in hospitality. It's an opportunity that could change their lives, as it did mine."
Karl Warner, head of youth at C4, added: "Viewers are going to be treated to seeing Fred like never before. Pushed to his limit and well and truly out of his comfort zone, he'll be marshalling his wet behind the ear and naive assistants as he tries to transform them into an elite hospitality team.
"The series promises all the intense drama and humour our audiences love on E4 and All 4 – bonne chance, Fred."
The eight-part series will be filmed this summer and play out on E4 later this year.
